If it's simply about "I was right" / "other were wrong", then nowhere really.
Someone convince me not to lock it as simply a pi**ing contest that will only serve to be taken as personal attacks, on all sides.

It's just an ME self-congratulation thread, and quite nauseous.
I prefer not to get involved, but instead on the nub of the OP I will say that as a member of the so-called Positive Tendency I personally don't see the point in looking at the negative of ANY situation, I find it is far better to face it, get over it, and look at positives to come out of it. So the PT is a state of mind, an approach to the problem, a recognition that not everything in life will always be rosy.
That's why, as ever, I'll be following the Bulls next year, and hope to see the bright lights shining and emerging through the gloom and muck and bullets.
Quote ="Block5Bull" I'd regard myself as PT although I am not a fan of Macca as head coach.
I see lots of things to be concerned about at the moment but I also see lots of reasons to be positive about the future beyond the end of this season.
Among these are:
- a genuine pipeline in place for youth,
- a core of quality in our squad (irrespective of who is coaching them,)
- an apparent clearout starting of some (albeit not all) of the players that we've all been criticising for the last couple of seasons,
- the most promising looking Odsal project ever,
- with every day that passes we are one day closer to the end of Michael Platt's bizarre 3 year extension.
Yes, you can turn each of those round and sneer at them but I think that is basically the PT/NT divide isn't it?
I don't understand a) people who regard everything that the club say to be either inadequate or part of an arch and wicked conspiracy to pull the wool over fans' eyes, or b) people who start new threads with the sole purpose of taking personal satisfaction for saying 'I told you so' or else just cutting and pasting the same sarcstic / nihilistic comment that they made elsewhere.'"
What a great post. May you live long, and prosper. This poster has indeed summarised the difference between the PT and the NT in a very neat nutshell.
